Overmassive black holes from the early Universe - too big for the galaxies that they inhabit.
Super-Eddington accretion phase is defined by extreme (mass inflow) rates exceeding the so-called classical "Eddington Limit".
It's like seeing a family walking down the street, and they have two six-foot teenagers, but they also have with them a six-foot-tall toddler. That's a bit of a problem. How did the toddler get so tall? And it's the same for supermassive black holes in the universe. How did they get so massive so quickly?
